COFFROTH S ARENA. San Francisco.
Sept. . In on of the most unique battles
In ring history. Jack Johnson, the world's
champion, was accredited with a "news
paper" decision over Al Kaufmann at the
end of ten rounds of fighting this after
noon at Coffroth's arena. According to
the articles of agreement, if both men
were on their feet when ten rounds had
been fought, no decision was to be given.
Referee Eddie Smith, however, stated to
the newspaper men after the contest that
Johnson had both outfought and out
boxed the Callfomlan at every stase of
the contest and therefore was entitled
to a verdict. Smith gave out this state
ment: "Johnson outfoupht, outhlt and out
generaled Kaufmann all through the
fight. Ha fought in his usual, natural,
patient way and I think that he did not
hold back. In the ninth round, as well as
In some of the earlier ones, he tried hard
to finish his opponent. Kaufmann forced
Johnson hard In the seventh and ninth
rounds and landed some good bodyblows.
He, however, was no match for the cham
pion." Lack or Enthusiasm.
Never before has such a lack of en
thusiasm been displayed over a contest
between the big men of the ring, and
this feeling Is reflected in an almost
stagnant betting market.
Betting on the big contest was apa
thetic. Johnson ruled favorite at the
ringside at odds of 10 to 4. but little
money changed hands at these figures.
A number of wasers were registered at
2 to 1 that the Californlan would be on
his feet at the end of the tenth round.
Kaufmann weiKhed In this morning at
ariout 26 pounds, while the champion
tipped the beam at S3.
Roscoe Taylor, of Seattle, and Tommy
McCarthy, a local ring satellite, were to
have fought a 15-round preliminary.
Keferee Tiv Kreling stopped the prelim
inary In the 11th round and awarded the
verdict to McCarthy. It was a most
spretacular bout.

receiving a beating that cut his face into
ribbons.
Tantalizing Tactics.
Johnson opened the battle as if he
were d?termined to make a show of
Kaufmann. He employed tantalizing and
forceful right uppercuts with such fre
quency that th? erstwhile blacksmith was
fairly" bewildered. Early in the contest
his face begun to show signs of the
cl'.ar.ipion'!- stirglng punches and In the
third round. a well-directed wallop
siarted the blood flowing from, Kauf
mann's face in a stream. On the other
hand Kaufmann showed himself clumsy
bv comparison and his footwork waa
amateurish. It was not until the seventh
round that one of his powerful swings'
found refuge in the champion's stomach
and it was this punch that caused the
smile which Johnson had worn up to
this time to vanteh.
All through th contest Johnson ap--peared
to be holding himself in reserve
and it took constant Jibing by the specta
tors and an occasional punch from the
blacksmith to start him going. And
when he did let go he played with Kauf
mann as If tiie latter were a mere tot.
Johnson's best blow was a right uppercut
at clone range.
Kaufmann Lands One.
In the ninth round Kaufmann . found
the champion's stomach with a vicious
right awing. It was Kaufmann's best
blow and it made Johnson more careful.
The champion slowed down perceptibly
after this and he did not display the
same dash in the concluding round that
characterized his earlier work.
The fight proved one thing conclusive
lythat Kaufmann has no business in
short round affairs such as today's con
test. He appeared to gain strength as
the battle progressed, while on the other
hand Johnson, who apparently had
trained none too well, began to show
signs of weakening.
Johnson gave out the following state
meat to the press after the battle, while
he was busily engaged in schoolboy
antics in his corner:
I found Kaufmann a harder fighter
than I expected. I thought I had him
twice, but each time he came back ap
parently fresh. I consider Kaufmann a
good man, strong and with some clever
ness, but I haven't the slightest doubt
that I could put him out in 20 rounds."
Kaufmann had this to say:
Expected Defeat.
"It was a I expected: I could not
beat Johnson in ten rounds. I never
was daxed or distressed, and I know now
that in & finish fight I surely can beat
him. Johnson plainly grew weaker in the
rlnth and tenth rounds, while I was as
stong as at any time during the fight."
Kaufmann entered the ring at S:52
o'clock and Johnson appeared a moment
later. The crowd hooted the black cham
pion as he walked down the aisle and
stepped over the ropes. Kaufmann was
received with cheers.
Kaufmann was Introduced as a native
son of the Golden Wert. Then Johnson
was presented and there was a renewal
of hoots from -the crowd.
At 3 P. M. there was not a vacant seat
In either the gallery or the reserved sec
tion. A fringe of humanity stood in the
extreme rear of the gallery seats.
Johnson looked a bit fat as he posed,
while Kaufmann appeared to be in fine
shape. Tne ring was cleared and the
mn mere celled at S.04 P. M.
THE FIGHT BY ROUNDS.
Round One.
Johnson opened the battle with a well
placed left hook to the stomach. The men
then mixed at close range. Johnson landing
risht and left short-arm punches to the Jaw.
J.ihnsnn smiled and shot riitht and left to
the face. Kaufmann looked a bit worried
at this stage and spaj-red for fully half a
minute. Johnson closed In, landing short
arm rights and lefts to the head. There
was little stlna; In them, howfwr. Just be
fore the round ended. Kaufmann shot a
straight left to the Jaw, but the champion
only smiled. Kaufmann seemed very slow
In comparison with Johnson.
Round Two.
Johnson wrestled Kaufmann against the
ropes and a moment later drove a straight
left to the face. He followed this with a
left to the bidy and then quickly brought
the same member to the blacksmith's Jaw.
Kaufmann appeared a bit at sea. and as yet
had not been able to locate the black'a
anatomv. They closed in and Johnson rocked
Kaufmann's head with Ineffective short
arm swings. Johnson rushed Kaufmann Into
a corner, but inflicted no damage. John-

tators. Round liree.
Thev rushed In close, Johnson driving a
wicked Irft to the Jaw, which he followed
with a hard clout to the stomach. Johnson
then uppercut twice wltU his rlpfht to the
jaw and mouth and the blood spouted from
Kaufmann's bleeding: face and forced the
blacksmith to stall. Johnson taunted Kauf
mann good-naturedly and varied this with
two fearful jolts' to the Jaw. The bell ranjr
and Al tumbled Into his chair with blood
flowing in a veritable stream from Ins
mouth and nose. It mas apparent that
Johnson was Kaufmann's master and could
finish him at such time as he was ready to
cut loose.
Round Four.
Kaufmann. after sparring-, drove a hard
riKht to the nomach. This nettled the cham
pion and he quickly beat the Callforman
against the rope, planting- right and left to
the jaw. After come clinching Kaufmann
drve his riht to the stomach and Johnwn
Krtnned and winked at his second, both
m?n cased up. Kaufmann seldom leading
Tie rcund end-d tamely and It looked as if
Jt.hnron deliberately slowed up.
I'p t thi! eiase Kaufmann failed to lead
and had landed but two punches both to the
stomach.
Hound Mve.
The men fought at c!o quarters and John
son uppercut twice with right. lifting Kauf
mann's head a foot In the air. Johnson was
quickness and nlmblenese peraonined. The
champion drove right and left to the stomach
and had Kaufmann constantly on the aefen
sive. Kaufmann made two lamentably weak
efforts to land and the fighters shuffled
around the ring- without any serious damage
being inflicted.
Round. tSlz.
Kaufmann was short with a left lead and
the men clinched. Johnson sent the Califor
nlan almoM Into the pre stand with left
hook to the bedy and a right crow? to the
Jaw. "Mix it. Al." the crowd yelled, and
Al did so. But he found J.ihnsoi. T-alting Tor
him and the latur showed that he fs mas
ter of the ritual Ion at any style of flghJag that
Kaufmann could bring to him. The i lund
closed with Ineffectual exchanges and Jl hi)
son having everything his own way.
Round Seven.
Kaufmann tried with left for the jaw. but li
was so easily blocked thnt the crowd was
forced to y-ll derUlvely. Kaufmann fought Id
cIojw. but ntt a blow landed, the black man
mnotherlng every attempt like a "killed fighter.
Kaufmann planted a right and left to the
stomach. A long clinch followed, during
which Johnson held back and cut loose alter
nately. It was apparent that Johnson was
holding blmeelf in reserve.
Round Eight
Johnson opened up the round with a
straight left to the Jaw and as the men
closed in the big black swung right and left
with considerable force to the Jaw and mouth.
Kaufman backed away, seidom. If ever, lead
ing. de?plte instructions of hta advisers.
Johnson again started the blood from Kauf
mann 'a mouth with hard right and left arm
wines. As1 Kaufmann closed In Johnson
uppercut twice to the jaw with hi left, for
which he was rebuked by a hard right hook
t- the stomach, about the first blow Kauf
mann had landed. Johnson kept up an.'lnces
sant exchange of bantering with the crowd
during the minute' respite.
Round Nine.
Kaufmann forced the amll from Johnson
face by clouting him In the stomach with a
pile-driving right. For a fleeting moment
the black fought back a hit wildly. He
quickly regained his composure, however, and
sent right and left with great for-e to the
Jaw. With the return of Johnson's -mile
he drove Kaufmann againrt the ropes and
landed twice with long lefts. The round
ended with the crowd Jeering Johnson and
some of the spectators started to leave the
Round Ten.
After considerable sparring Johnson hooked
his right to the Jaw. Kaufmann came back
and landed right and left to the face as they
mixed in the center of the ring. After jonn-
son, goaaea on oy inwe pumnw,
silff lft to the face. Kaufmann isnded twice
on the bodv with t're left. A moment later
he sent a hard right to the stomach and the
rrfn mixed it without rlamng. The crowd

BIG CARD FOR EXHIBITION
Owners Consent Is Asked for Unique.
Parade That Would Do Much to
Advertise Fair at Country
Club Grounds.
A public street parade the like of
which Portland has never seen Is being
planned by the Portland Fair and Live
stock Association in connection with
the coming- meet, week after next. It
Is now clear that there will be consid
erably more than 81,000,000 worth of
livestock, horses, cattle, sheep, swine,
goats and harness racers entered In
the lists for the exposition, and the
management hopes to be able to con
duct a free exhibition of all this array
of stock through the business portion
of the city as an inducement to make
Portland day, Wednesday, September 22,
the biggest celebration since the Lewis
and Clark Fair.
The matter is now being taken up
with the principal exhibitors, not only
from Oregon, but from California,
Idaho, Washington, British Columbia,
Montana and the Middle Western States.
They are being asked to a.Ilow their en
tries, whether in races or show ring, to
be put into this big novel pageant, and
there Is already some assurance that
such a procession can be held some
forenoon early in the week. Most of
the exhibitors and horsemen have
chartered their own stock cars, and
all that will be necessary to hold this
interesting parade will be to arrange
with the O. R. & N. and Southern Pa
cific to have the stock cars run into
town and the stock disentralned on
Fourth street at some central point
and formed Into line.
Nothing like this has ever been at
tempted heretofore, but It is felt by the
Portland Fair people that it will be the
most impressive way of demonstrating
to the general public the intrinsic and
prospective value and importance of
the livestock industry in the North
west. Everybody knows of Rosa Bon
heur's famous painting, "The County
Fair," and this is serving as an inspira
tion for the movement now under way.
It is believed that in no other way can
such a strong impression be created.
The great circuses which from time to
time visit Portland give street parades
which are supposed to represent invest
ments of close to a million, but they
are shown for the purpose of getting
people to attend the shows and take
the money out of town. On the other
hand, the only object in having the
proposed pageant by the Portland Fair
people is to demonstrate the possibility
of developing the livestock Industry in
Oregon and the Northwest.
The programme committee for Fra
ternity day, Tuesday. September 21,
met at the Commercial Club at noon
yesterday ami completed details for the
programme which will be presented to
the general committee at a meeting to
be held at the same place tonight at 8
o'clock. More than 0 of the fraternal
societies of Portland have committees
acting in conjunction with the commit
tee In chief, and prizes will be offered
to the organization showing the biggest
representation according 2 to member
ship. Ladies' day, which comes on Friday
of the exposition week, is worrying the
management. They want suggestions.
They are desirous of bringing out the
largest feminine attendance possible,
and will arrange for . a programme
which, it is expected, will appeal to the
fair sex.
Sentiment as expressed by a number
of the leading business men of the
city indicates that there will be little
difficulty in securing a half-holiday for
Portland day, Wednesday, of the meet.
The general committee will meet and
complete plans as soon as President
Wehrung returns from Seattle, which
will be within the next day or two.
Children's day plans are well along.
With the scheme of giving free admis
sion to all public school pupils on Sat
urday, the last day of the meet, it Is
confidently believed that an attendance
of from 15,000 to 20,000 can be attained
on that day. Special events on the race
card will be reserved for that day as a
treat for the youngsters, and at the
same time a list of extra features will
be prepared for the "Home Stretch," the
amusement feature.
